  | sent on 07 Agosto 2024 Pros: Very sufficient sharpness from full aperture, very high sharpness from f/2.8, reduced weight, Min. focus distance, overall product quality. The Bokey is very beautiful in certain situations. The distortion is very well corrected (on Z6 iii). No focus breathing (for videographers). Cons: The price, it is obviously too expensive, that is its REAL flaw. Its light weight can sometimes be seen as a disadvantage*. Vignetting is present as well as moderate chromatic aberrations at full aperture. Opinion: What a lot of reviews I've read (sometimes bad) about this lens! I bought it to go with a Z6 III, especially in video mode, but also for group photos at weddings. First of all, let's get the price out of the way. Yes, it's too expensive, especially since it's only f/1.8. I suppose that's because of its optical formula... There are controversial opinions about its sharpness. It's criticized for being too sharp for portraits, and at the same time for being the least sharp lens in the Z f/1.8 series! For group photos, between f/2.8 and f/4, it's very sharp on a 24MPix camera! For a centered subject, from f/1.8 it's surgical in the center, and frankly not so bad on the edges. Some find its Bokeh insignificant, others find it very beautiful. In reality, as with any lens, you have to be very attentive to the combination of "plane value - subject distance - background distance + spot metering while preserving highlights" to obtain something very pleasant. For video, I consider that it does not present any Focus breathing, which is a great advantage if you frequently switch focal points. Distortion is very well corrected by the Z6iii. At full aperture vignetting is present, as well as chromatic aberrations (not too much). Its light weight will appeal to many people, not me because I like to feel something a little more balanced towards the front of the camera/lens combination. A matter of taste. Faced with the less expensive alternative of the Nikon Z 35mm f/1.4, I arbitrated against the f/1.4, because of the Minimum focus distance, the questionable sharpness of the f/1.4 at full aperture, and also because the f/1.4 does not seem to be a real 35mm (maybe a 37mm?). Maybe one day Nikon will grace us with a sublime 35mm f/1.2, in the meantime, the 35mm f/1.8 S does the job. Rating: 9. |

 | sent on 17 Agosto 2024 Pros: Sharpness, lightness, micro-contrast, fast focusing, and silent focusing Cons: Maybe the price but it's a great lens Opinion: I use it for street and I never take it off the camera body. It's incredible in the city I do everything coupled with the second generation z7. With the Matrix and the focusing system of the camera it does not miss a beat. It's a delight. Sincerely recommended with the limits of the focal length and the price. I must say, however, that the Z lenses, at least the S ones, are all great lenses. |
  | sent on 28 Giugno 2024 Pros: Sharpness, optical quality, bokeh, focus Cons: Ridiculous case Opinion: I'll start by saying that I don't particularly like this focal length but given the low weight I decided to buy it as a replacement for the Nikon Z 50mm f/1.8 S as I bought and resold it immediately not finding the right feeling. With this 35 that I used for both indoor and outdoor portraits, I feel good and particularly appreciate the sharpness and bokeh. It is still a light optic but to the touch it gives you the impression of quality unlike the plasticky Z 28 and 40. Embarrassing and useless case by Nikon. Rating: 8- |
 | sent on 08 Maggio 2024 Pros: microcontrast, colors Cons: nobody Opinion: I took this lens instead of the 24/70 f4 which didn't excite me, it exploits the full potential of my Z6, another world for micro contrast and colors, this 35 is Nikon's best (yes even the f1.4 I've had). Great bokeh maybe even better than the 50 1.8 s. Excellent for street and landscape since sharpness is accompanied by low weight, it is addictive, attentive |
 | sent on 07 Maggio 2024 Pros: Quality, Sharpness, Brightness, Precision, Detail Cons: Price, Bezel Opinion: I've had this lens for a little over two years, taken to be used on the fc z and simulate the 50mm focal length. The lack of stabilization didn't create any major problems for me, in fact, I had few with the right precautions. I had a lot of fun and what was most noticeable was the great quality of the optics and the sharpness. Using it on aps c it took the best of the image (in the center of the lens, sharpness at the top) and therefore also mitigated some of its defects, in fact the rendering has always been excellent. Very bright then, you could easily take night photos and they were perfect. I recently changed camera with a zf (full frame), but unfortunately I don't like it anymore because I prefer different focal lengths for portraits (and I find myself having a too crowded lens park in that range, in fact it was sold even if reluctantly, because compared to pancakes it gives it a strip, but I needed to monetize...). However, apart from the chatter, this obviously does not detract from this lens, r if you love focal length and a rendering of detail do not hesitate to take it. |
 | sent on 09 Dicembre 2022 Pros: Optical quality, fast MAF Cons: Footprint compared to 35 1.8/2 standard, price Opinion: Of the new classic triad for ML Nikon (35-50-85), the 35 1.8 passes to be the lens a little less performing: it is probably true, but it is true because both the 50 and, even more, the 85 1.8 are really optics to which the "standard" definition is narrow: their yield is really very high, practically perfect. So, at the end of the day, if you have a little AC against the absolute nothingness of '85, you seem to have and be worth less. In reality the optics is really very good, with an IQ that is already excellent at TA, allowing a good detachment of the planes if you approach the subject correctly (always remember that it is a wide angle). If anything, the negative side will be sought in the size, not so much in the weight: but the new Z series has favored image quality even at the expense of more compact optical schemes. The price, if we compare it to the 35 standards of other brands (for example the Sony 1.8 or the Panasonic 1.8), is a bit higher. Rating: 9. |
 | sent on 16 Marzo 2021 Pros: Sharpness, MAF speed, MFD, bokeh, three-dimensionality and microcontrasto, versatility Cons: Price Opinion: I made the switch from 50S to 35S, as I wanted to return to my favorite fixed "all-rounder" focal. I was a little hesitant since the fiftieth is now universally considered one of the best S-lines, while of the 35 you can also hear some criticism. However, I had to believe again, certainly the 35mm are a focal point optically more "problematic" and you can see it: at TA it is slightly less sharp than the 50 S, there is some (slight) longitudinal aberration and (turning off the in-camera corrections) distorts a little, but this does not detract from the fact that it is an exceptional lens. The AF is (almost) lightning fast and silent and the optical drawing in floating groups allows excellent image quality even in close shots, in fact it left me speechless the magnification ratio that reaches the MFD of only 0.25 m (then if you want to make it a macro, just the 11mm Meike tube). Note: the two AF motors feel "different" if you are used to the single-engine 50S, at least in the early days you will get the feeling that there is something "strange", but everything is normal. The images he churns out are splendid, he has a very pleasant and quite soft bokeh even with difficult backgrounds (branches, leaves) - I like it more than that of the 50S, an excellent color rendering and, least of all, it has a microcontrast and a consequent three-dimensionality that reminds me of my beloved Zeiss Distagon 35 (better than the 50 S which, in my opinion, has flatter tonal passages). The central sharpness at TA is excellent and the peripheral is still great, forget pixel-by-pixel comparisons at 200% zoom, I guarantee you can use it at F/1.8 with superb results. It is equal to the 50 S as size and similar as weight, so large enough for a 1.8, but the philosophy of the Z line is completely different (and you can also see it from the prices, unfortunately): the 1.8 is no longer the economic alternative, but a professional-class product, with a complex optical design and excellent optical yield. The construction quality is the typical S-line: minimal design, almost "business" (I like it very much), well protected from dust and humidity. The manual MAF does not convince me much: it is electronically controlled as on all the new Nikkor Z (except the expensive Noct, by the way manual) and does not, in my opinion, have the precision and feeling of the "mechanical" ring. In the automatic MAF position, other functions can be assigned to the ring (iris, exposure compensation, ISO), but in my opinion the answer is too sensitive. In conclusion, an excellent Nikkor Z that offers lovers of bright fixes the ultimate "all-rounder" solution. Vote 10. |
 | sent on 24 Gennaio 2020 Pros: Lightness, incisiveness, speed of focus. Cons: Price (if Nital) Opinion: It's a really valuable all-rounder lens. In paired with the Z7 it gives images of high sharpness, already starting from the open diaphragms; It makes it almost useless to close over 5.6, so it eliminates the diffraction problem and allows smooth shots in difficult light conditions. Great because of its reduced weight, it can accompany our day without being heard. I have owned the Nikkor 35 mm in the past. f/1.4 G (of which I keep a good memory) but I can safely say that this 35 mm Z series equals it in all weighing half and being much sharper on the margins. 10 and praise to Nikon. |
 | sent on 17 Gennaio 2020 Pros: Sharpness, silent focus Cons: the price Opinion: Gorgeous lens, quiet, light, bright and crisp, the soft bokeh, great for movies. For the fabulous street you can stay around all day without getting tired ! The only thing the price a little expensive compared to the one mounted on the reflex, and then with the stabilization of the Z7 is a cool , the great colors as well as the contrast that say I highly recommend it !! |

| sent on 30 Dicembre 2018 Pros: Sharpness, accurate focus and construction Cons: Footprint, Price Opinion: An expensive but great lens, the perfect companion for my Z6 for street and travel photographs. I enjoyed the extraordinary sharpness, the nice and soft bokeh and the excellent construction. It also enjoys the 5-axis stabilization of the Z series that I can assure works wonderfully, both for the photographs and for the video. It would have been perfect if it had been slightly more compact and inexpensive. |
